VERONA -- A Durhamville woman has been charged under "Leandra's Law" after allegedly driving drunk with a minor in the car.

Julie A. Winn, 41, of Durhamville, was charged with driving while intoxicated, aggravated driving while intoxicated, operating a motor vehicle with blood alcohol content of .08 of one percent or higher and endangering the welfare of a child.

State police say Winn was driving drunk on State Route 46 in the Town of Verona with a 12-year-old passenger in the vehicle.

Winn was arraigned in the Town of Verona and committed to Oneida County Jail on $5,000 cash or $5,000 bond.

"Leandra's Law" is named after Leandra Rosado, an 11-year old girl killed on the Henry Hudson Parkway in 2009 when her friend's mother drove drunk and flipped the car they were in. Six other children were injured in the accident.

The law makes it an automatic felony on the first offense to drive drunk with a passenger age 15 or younger.
